How did your table display data easier for your users to view?
I used the table element to organize data pertaining to a schedule of weekly training runs. The table provides a convenient means to present related data in an visually accessible way. The table allows me to present a higher density of data (per screen real estate) with clarity and minimal ambiguity. Conveying the same information in prose would have required more text/space and been more difficult for visitors to read/comprehend.
What style choices did you make to improve the readability of your table?
I have to admit that in some cases I am choosing style over readability in order to demonstrate knowledge/skill. I was able to use background color and font-weight (text in header cells is automatically displayed in bold) to distinguish between header cells and regular table data. I liked the way ridged borders provide 3-dimensional relief/texture to the table.
How did the media you created contribute to the purpose of your website? What plugin(s) does the end user need to display/play?
I embedded video media from YouTube. This is possibly a cop-out as far as media creation is concerned. I think that inclusion of this media is representative of the kind of information visitors would want/expect/appreciate from the site. X-shockwave-flash plugin/player is required to play the media.
